She was also wearing soft-soled slippers, so it didn't hurt when she stepped on them.
"Why are you so angry all of a sudden?" Yan Beicheng hugged her even tighter. "What's going on? What did I do wrong to make you angry? You have to tell me to let me know. You're angry yourself and you don't tell me. I don't know how to change. It's so uncomfortable for you to sulk. "
Lin Chu: "Uh …"
Hearing him say that, she suddenly wasn't angry anymore …
She had known that it was Lu Weining's wishful thinking. Yan Beicheng's attitude towards Lu Weining was so cold just now, but in the end, he was very impolite. It hurt her self-esteem. This had nothing to do with Yan Beicheng.
But thinking about Lu Weining's words, she felt disgusted and couldn't help but dislike Yan Beicheng.
"Be good, tell me and give me a chance to change." Yan Beicheng looked like he was admitting his mistake very well. He decided that no matter what Lin Chu said, everything was right. It was definitely his fault and he had to change.
"Uh …" Facing his excellent attitude of admitting his mistake, Lin Chu couldn't maintain his cold face. Although he was still a little disgusted, his tone was much softer than before. "You two almost got engaged before?"
"Who?" Yan Beicheng asked innocently.
"Are you going to pretend again?" Lin Chu raised her eyebrows and gritted her teeth.
She looked at him with an unfriendly gaze, which meant, 'Try pretending again!'
"Uh …" Yan Beicheng rubbed his head against Lin Chu's neck. "You mean Lu Weining?"
Lin Chu snorted. Yan Beicheng heard that she didn't seem to be angry anymore, so he pinched her earlobe with his long and beautiful fingers. He had nothing to do and gently twisted it, causing Lin Chu's earlobe to burn red and her aura to weaken.
"My father passed away when I was 15 years old. Before he passed away, my … mother —" Yan Beicheng pursed his lips into a stern line. He paused for a moment before continuing, "She wanted me to get engaged to her. But Old Master, Old Madam, and Father all said that I was still too young and that it was too early to get married. When I grew up, I would have my own ideas and the marriage would be up to me. But she still mentioned it several times, and Grandpa and the others rejected her. "
As Lin Chu listened, he guessed that the person he was talking about was his mother.
"At that time, I didn't meet Lu Weining many times. At most, we would introduce each other on some necessary occasions. I didn't talk to her much. To be honest, I don't even remember what she looks like, "Yan Beicheng said with a sneer.
Lin Chu faintly raised his eyes and asked, "At that time in Ning City, was she in the picture taken by the reporters?"
"Yes, my mother is now living in Ning City with my grandmother's family. The last time I went on a business trip, I went to their territory, so I couldn't not pay them a visit. We had a meal together, but I didn't expect them to call Lu Weining's father over. Lu Weining was there too. "Yan Beicheng curled his lips mockingly." I just don't know who called the reporters over. "
Lin Chu lowered her eyes. Her thick eyelashes completely covered her eyes.
She remembered that Yan Beicheng's explanation was that he had gone back to visit his elders.
She didn't know what kind of relationship Yan Beicheng had with his mother. When she heard him mention his mother, he even paused for a moment. It was obvious that he didn't want to say that word. This was easy to understand why he only said that he was going to visit his elders and not his mother. It was obvious that he didn't like to mention that person.
She recalled that when he told her about his family situation, he only mentioned the two elders, Yan Huaian's family, and his deceased father. He still didn't mention his mother.
Since his mother was still alive, but he didn't want to mention it, she didn't know why, but his relationship with his mother was extremely bad.
"The Aunt Jiang that Lu Weining mentioned just now —" Lin Chu was interrupted by Yan Beicheng.
"I'll take you to a place," Yan Beicheng said and stood up with her in his arms. "Change your clothes first."
With that, he left the bedroom.
Lin Chu opened her mouth to say something, but he had already walked far away.
She sighed. She couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was, but it definitely wasn't good.
He had something, but he didn't want to tell her.
Perhaps that was his privacy, and he didn't want to say it. But she felt that their relationship had reached a certain level, so there were many things that didn't need to be hidden.
He knew everything about her.
But she realized that she didn't know much about him.
He said that he only wanted to marry her, and she also thought that she only wanted to marry him. Since the two of them had decided to spend the rest of their lives together, she really should know about his matters.
She didn't have to rush him, but it didn't mean that she had to let him keep it a secret and never tell her.
She felt that he really didn't have any plans to tell her about today's situation.
And what made her feel the most uncomfortable was that Lu Weining knew. She didn't know what Lu Weining knew. It was as if … as if she was excluded from it.
This was perhaps the thing that bothered her the most.
She was a little disappointed and didn't even notice the footsteps that left and returned.
Until a pair of feet wearing slippers and black cotton socks appeared in her line of sight. The trousers fell on the back of the feet, and it was very beautiful.
Lin Chu realized that Yan Beicheng had returned again. She raised her head in surprise, only to see a somewhat yellowed photo.
She couldn't be more familiar with the person in the photo.
Wasn't the little girl sitting in the boy's arms herself?
She looked at the young man behind the little girl. He looked a little familiar. When her memories came back, her blurry impression of the young man in her memory became clearer.
At that time, she was too young, and it had been a long time since then. It was inevitable that her memory of the young man would be a little blurry. But as soon as she looked at the photo, she remembered.
"You —" Lin Chu opened his mouth in surprise and was dumbfounded.
He looked at the photo and then at Yan Beicheng, his eyes filled with shock.
Now that he looked carefully, he realized that Yan Beicheng was so similar to the young man in the photo. The difference was that time had made him more mature. His face had more traces of time, and he wasn't as white and tender as he was when he was young.
When he was young, his face was full of collagen. At that time, when he smiled, he was as gentle as jade and elegant.
Now, his facial features were deep and handsome, as if they were carved by a knife.
It was just that she didn't remember the appearance of that young man from back then, so when she met Yan Beicheng, she didn't recognize him.
If she remembered, she definitely wouldn't be wrong.
"I was 15 years old at that time. My father passed away, and it was a huge blow to me. At that time, I felt that the whole world wasn't good. Everything was gray. My family was worried about me, and no matter what, there would always be someone by my side. "Yan Beicheng's eyes were filled with a gentle smile.
He opened the closet door and took out a coat from inside for Lin Chu to wear. Then, he led her out, who was still in shock and didn't know how to react.
When they went downstairs, Auntie Zhuang had finished cleaning the kitchen and was applying a facial mask. Her face was green and oily with a thick layer of mud.
"Sir?" Auntie Zhuang looked at them in surprise. They seemed to be going out.
But Lin Chu was still wearing his home clothes.
"Let's go out for a while. There's no need to wait for the door," Yan Beicheng said as he pulled Lin Chu out.
After they went out, he continued, "At that time, Yan Huaian was already in university. As long as he wasn't in class, he would come to Jixia Academy to find me. When I returned to Grandpa and Grandma's house, they would also accompany me. They were afraid that I would let my imagination run wild when I was alone and feel uncomfortable. They would even rack their brains to think of jokes to tell me. At that time, Grandpa would carry a copy of 'The King of Jokes' everywhere he went. When he saw something funny, he would circle it and read it to me. Grandma would search for funny programs and clips on TV every day and record them for me to watch. "
Thinking of the concern his family had for him at that time, Yan Beicheng's expression became especially gentle. "It's just that they were a little too forceful. Sometimes, I really wanted to be alone for a while. There would always be someone following me and carefully paying attention to my every move. Even the slightest movement would make me feel like I was something, as if I was a fragile glass ball. I was also under a lot of pressure.
"So, one time, I secretly ran away and wanted to find a place to hide and be quiet. That's why I climbed over the walls of the orphanage and met you, "Yan Beicheng said.
Listening to Yan Beicheng's words, Lin Chu also forgot about the previous topic about his mother.
As they talked, the car unknowingly stopped.
